Coordination within decentralized agent groups frequently requires reaching global consensus, but typical hierarchical approaches to reaching such decisions can be complex, slow, ...
—The support of distributed atomic transactions in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) is a key requirement for many mobile application scenarios. Atomicity is a fundamental property ...
— In this paper we consider cooperative manipulation problems where a large group (swarm) of non-articulated mobile robots is trying to cooperatively control the velocity of some...
The distributed nature of peer-to-peer networks offers a solid ground for the deployment of environments where multiple agents, managing several resources, can cooperate in pursuin...
In the future, intelligent sensors will connected through networks, each node have its own autonomy, heterogeneity, and under dynamic environments. We call these systems as a Hete...
